The Apology (II) (2022)
3/10
The Apology proves to be a disappointing entry in the horror genre
9 December 2023
I recently viewed The Apology (2022) on Shudder. The storyline revolves around a mother grappling with her daughter's mysterious disappearance, and her unexpected encounter with her long-lost ex-brother-in-law brings forth revelations about the incident.

Directed by Alison Locke, in her directorial debut, the film stars Anna Gunn (Breaking Bad), Linus Roache (Mandy), and Janeane Garofalo (Mystery Men).

The movie invests its entire runtime in character development and backstory, but unfortunately, it falls short as not much transpires. Despite solid acting and a promising premise, the film primarily consists of prolonged arguments, and the climactic event at the end lacks the execution to justify the time invested.

In conclusion, The Apology proves to be a disappointing entry in the horror genre, deserving a score of 3.5/10, and I would advise skipping it.
